Topic: Claymore's Dual Ethereum AMD+NVIDIA GPU Miner v15.0 (Windows/Linux) - page 1242. (Read 6590565 times)

I have problem on 2 PC - both with Radeon 265 2GB cards. One of these PCs has a single, alone R265. SYstem/miner is 100% stable when mining ethereum.
When mining alts (expanse/shift etc), literally every second change of DAG due to devfee, when not mining ethereum, they crash and all GPUs start mining with 0.00 MH/s
But the miner doesn't detect this as problem.
The only workaround seems to be setting
-r 60

Request for feature:
Either the miner or the Remote Management module - restart miner if reported hashrate is below certain threshold

The problem is present on a friends systems, he has 2 rigs, each with  6xR265
No problem if mining ethereum.

Trying to understand sia coin, will claymores miner require hdd space or it will just do some hash function on gpu?

Hi,

which pool / exchange are you using? I've been looking for such a solution....

thanks

L.

I was searching for Siacoin public mining pools but seems there are none...

then I read this arcticle http://cryptomining-blog.com/tag/siacoin-miner/

and it looks like setting mining pools for Siacoin is not really that attractive to operate...

However there is a PPS Siacoin mining pool in the works, but I dont think its online yet

see - http://forum.sia.tech/topic/252/pps-pool-in-beta-testing

With Decred I can mine from a pool right to an exchange.  Can't do that with ShapeShift.

ShapeShift has added Siacoin!

Are there exchanges for Siacoin?

v5.0 is ready, but I have to catch another block to confirm that it works properly.
We need some public pools for Siacoin.

You need to wait 24 hour to really get an idea of your effective.  However I can tell you there is a reason I don't mine at ethermine

From their stats page:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1433925.msg15033638;topicseen#msg15033638

Just done a 3 hour mining test at Ethermine pool.

Rate reported by miner to the pool is: 44.7mhs.

Effective Hashrate from shares 39-41mhs over a 3 hour period.

So, even at Ethermine, up to 9% of hashrate gets no shares.

The pools don't know what your mining speed is and they are simply not going to trust that the hash rate you advertise to them is what your actual hash rate is.  Instead they have a difficulty setting.  The pools knows for example that at X difficulty a 100mhs rig should produce say 60 shares per hour or 1 share per minute.  If you submit one share per minute at that difficulty, then the pool will say ok you're making 100mhs.  If you produce one share every two minutes then the pool will say hey you're only at the 50mhs rate.  So depending how "lucky" or optimal your rig is at finding a share will effect the speed that the pool thinks you're rig is hashing at.  It simple cannot just take the word of your reported hash rate or people will just find a way to send exaggerated hash rates to the pool.  So the pool luck and your share luck also effect your total payout.

What Claymore reports and what Ethermine reports are two different things.  The effective hashrate Ethermine shows you is going to be lower than what Claymore shows you your local hashrate is.

Someone with more experience at mining software and pools can probably explain it better than me.

first of all thank you very much for your explanation, but according to it im currently @ 55Mh/s (reported on claymore) with almost 1 or 0 stales per hour and 0 invalid at all i should get on ethermine.org (55/100 * 0.7054 = 0.387 while i get 0.35)
please can you explain what everyone means by "things are optimal"   
Thanks again

About your ETH earnings while mining.  You can calculate an average amount you should be earning if all things are optimal. However this is a LUCK based thing.  It is random.

Pools have good days and bad days. They have days where they get really lucky (some pools even show you the luck percentage.) They also have days where they get really unlucky and don't get as many blocks for some reason.

This takes into account that your miner is working optimally. Maybe you have a better connection to one of the other pools so you submit less stales/orphans. That effects your results too.

Here is how to do the math. Let me also attach a picture so you can see the stats I'm using. These stats change all the time. So if you want to see how i do the math below use the picture.

This is a chart of all the pools, their uncle rates, their blocks mined, and their hash rate. You can see it here.


And here is the link for where the stats come from if you want to do the math yourself any time.
https://etherchain.org/statistics/miners

Each blocks mined = 5. (It's more complicated if we try to calculate uncles so we'll skip them.)

Dwarfpool (where I mine) mined 1495 blocks in the last 24 hours. They had 1 Terrahash.
(1495 * 5)  / 10000 = .7475 ETH per 100 MH

f2pool mined 1015 blocks at 717.6 GH
(1015 * 5) / 7176 = .7072 ETH per 100 MH

bw mined 650 blocks at 471.4 GH
(650 * 5) / 4714 = .6894 ETH per 100 MH

ethermine mined 640 blocks at 453.6 GH
(640 * 5) / 4536 = .7054 ETH per 100 MH

ethpool mined 435 blocks at 303.9 GH
(435 * 5) / 3039 = .7156 ETH per 100 MH

coinotron (where I mine) mined 362 blocks at 262.9 GH
(362 * 5) / 2629 = .68884 ETH per 100 MH

I won't go through all the pools.  But you can see .6888 to .7475 ETH per 100 MH.  However it looks like Dwafpool had a really lucky day. There amount of ETH earned is a good bit above the others. Tomorrow if you look at it maybe Dwarfpool is at the low end and another pool is having a lucky day.

If you look at the Uncle rate you can also see a big difference.  Dwarfpool only had 6% uncles which was the lowest of the poools.Coinmine had 11.1% and coinotron had 9.7% uncles.

If the pool pays out uncles this can greatly increase the rewards. It is interesting dwarfpool had really low uncles but mined a lot blocks.

The reason we can't do the math for uncles is they vary in size. We also need to know how they are paid out. If someone knows how to calculate all that I'd love to learn.

So if you think you're getting underpaid by your pool, do the math. Check to see how your pool is doing. If you don't like it you can always try and switch to another pool. Just remember this is all LUCK. Dwarfpool had a good day yesterday but they may have a shitty day today.

I dont know man, I am managing 0.640 eth daily with 88 mh/s  on ethermine. Exactly what the Estimated statistic earning shows.

I USED THIS SOFTWARE AND IT WORKED WITH ETHER MINING GOOD WITH 50 MHz OUTPUT.... BUT AFTER SYNC DECRED I TRIED TO USED IT WITH DUAL AND SINGLE MINING BUT I GIVE THIS ERROR !!

WHAT'S PROBLEM? MY WINDOWS 10

What kind of hardware, drivers are suggested to use  Claymore's and which one for Genoil's ?
